RENEWABLE ENERGY COUNTRY PROFILES

ASIA

January 2013 edition


w w w.irena .org

IRENA Renewable Energy Country Profiles take stock of the latest developments in the field of renewables at country level around the world. Each profile combines analysis by IRENAs specialists with the latest available country data and additional information from a wide array of sources. The resulting reports provide a brief yet comprehensive picture of the situation with regard to renewable energy, including energy supply, electrical generation and grid capacity, and access. Energy policies, targets and projects are also considered, along with each countrys investment climate and endowment with renewable energy resources. The energy statistics presented here span the period from 2009 until 2012, reflecting varying timelines in the source material. Since data availability differs from country to country, wider regional comparisons are possible only for the latest year with figures available for every country included. Despite the time lag in some cases, the evident differences and disparities between countries and regions around the world remain striking. The current package of country profiles is just a starting point. The geographic scope will continue to expand, and existing profiles will be enhanced with new indicators, with the whole series maintained as a live product on the IRENA website (www.irena.org). Your feedback on both the format and the content of these country profiles would be greatly appreciated. Please address any comments to statistics@irena.org.

RENEWABLE ENERGY COUNTRY PROFILE

glossary
1 Products
Coal comprises the solid fossil fuels consisting of carbonised vegetal matter (hard coal and brown coal) and the products derived from them (e.g. patent fuel, coke, blast furnace gas, coke oven gas). Peat is a solid formed from the partial decomposition of dead vegetation under conditions of high humidity and limited air access. Peat is not considered a renewable resource as its regeneration period is long. Oil covers the liquid fossil hydrocarbons comprising crude oil, liquids extracted from natural gas (NGL), fully or partly processed products from the refining of crude oil (e.g. gasoline, diesel) and functionally similar liquid hydrocarbons and organic chemicals from vegetal or animal origins. Natural gas includes natural gas but excludes natural gas liquids, which are included in oil and oil products. Nuclear shows the primary energy equivalent of the electricity produced by a nuclear power plant assuming an average thermal efficiency of 33%. Wastes are materials no longer required by their holders and which are used as fuels. They comprise municipal waste and industrial waste. Hydro shows the energy content of the electricity produced from devices driven by fresh, flowing or falling water. Hydro output excludes output from pumped storage plants. Biofuels are the solid, liquid or gaseous material obtained from living or recently living organisms (e.g. wood, charcoal, biogasoline, biodiesels, vegetal or animal waste). Solar is the energy that is captured from solar radiation to produce a useful energy output (electricity from solar photovoltaic, heat or electricity from solar thermal). Geothermal is the energy of the heat that is extracted from the earth, usually in the form of heated water or steam. Ocean shows the energy content of the electricity produced by tidal movement, wave motion, ocean current and other sources of marine energy. Wind shows the energy content of the electricity produced by wind turbines. Renewables are sources of energy which are naturally replenished as they are used. They include hydro, biofuels, solar, geothermal, ocean and wind. For the purposes of energy statistics, the renewable portion of municipal waste is also included.

2 Energy national profile box


Total Primary Energy Supply is the net flow of fuel or energy into the national territory from production, external trade, international bunkers and changes in stocks. Note that this value includes electricity trade unlike the pie charts presented later, which can result in small differences in values and the share of renewables. Self-sufficiency is the ratio of domestic production divided by Total Primary Energy Supply. A value below 100% means that the country is a net energy importer, i.e. that it has to import or draw from its stocks the energy needed to meet the part of demand that is not met by domestic production. Conversely, a value above 100% indicates that the country is a net energy exporter. Fuel imports show the amount spent on importing coal and peat, oil, natural gas and electricity in the country. For most countries, this amount includes cost, insurance and freight (CIF) (source http://www.wto.org). Electricity generation is the total amount of electricity produced in power plants (i.e. the gross electricity production). Electricity use is the electricity available for consumption, defined as the sum of domestic production and external trade minus the transmission losses. Electrical capacity is the net maximum installed capacity of all power plants at the end of the year concerned, i.e. the maximum power that can be supplied, continuously, with all of the plant running, at the point of outlet to the network. Electricity access rate is the share of the population with access to electricity Share of population using solid fuels is the percentage of the population that relies on solid biofuels, coal

and peat as the primary source of domestic energy for cooking and heating (source http://www.who.int).

3 Other indicators
World Bank ease of doing business index ranks economies from 1 to 183 in 10 areas of business regulation: starting a business, dealing with construction permits, registering property, getting credit, protecting investors, paying taxes, trading across borders, enforcing contracts, resolving insolvency and getting electricity (source: http://www.doingbusiness.org). Registered Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) project: the CDM allows emission-reduction projects in developing countries to earn certified emission reduc-

tion credits which can be traded and sold, and used by industrialised countries to a meet a part of their emission reduction targets under the Kyoto Protocol. A project is registered when the Executive Board of the CDM gives its final approval (source: http://cdm.unfccc.int).

4 Resources
Note: Data on the assessment of the resources of tidal power and ocean current is not available. Therefore, and for the purposes of the resource assessment only, ocean energy is limited to wave energy. For each renewable energy source, the rating is explained in the table below.
